Fly Away My Little Birdie

As I see my little darling being packed off -my little baby, a woman
As she dances herself into her happiness - her beau
As her life takes another turn - her journey
My heart cries out to her- our separation
Cries out of happiness - their togetherness
Cries out of a happy pain - tears
And I dance her away into her happiness - my dream

My little baby, A Woman
Her Beau
Her Journey
Our Separation
Their Togetherness
Tears
My Dream

A want to have been able to spend more time with her

Wonder how I'd be able to choose my colors without her nod or her nay;
The trial rooms will seem alien to me and the mirrors willl not understand my language;
Our room will keep wondering where is my other half;
My sight will search for her all over...

Will she ever come back as the same naughty girl who will make me search her up and down all around the house, until I will finally find her waiting for me in my own almirah replete with a bhaoooo and then hugs and kisses

Will I ever get a chance to keep little notes and a chocolate or two in her almirah

Will I ever open the gate for her at 12 in the night? just like each time her set of keys was forgotten at home?

As my vision blurs with pain streaming down my cheek

I also wonder who would I hug, my silent partner
Who will understand yet feign no understanding, my baby sister
Who will trudge up to me saying di, coffee? because i love coffe while she does not take a sip even
Who will pull to a stop in front of the vendor and say di, icecream? oh how she guages my urge

Who will pull out all the stops by standing up for me whenever, wherever

Who will balance it all...how on god's patch of this earth will the space ever fill up?
How in my heart will this space ever fill up

Now that you are taking her away, do treasure her the way I do, you will won't you?

Fly away my little birdie with your beau
Let the nest you build strengthen, protect, blossom and chirp with a forever togetherness

No distance can keep your hearts apart. . . just the sheer physicality. not the feelings. it will be a bit of getting used to, but it will also be the beginning of a new era between you two . . .

Thanks. yes the new perspective is even more beautiful...its a beginning of another era between nunu and me.

Hazel Dream: Cuckoo..?who are you referring to? You maybe mistaken

Pathfinder said...

togetherness has in it the seeds of seperation just the way distances are often no more that two people on either side of a fast flowing river.

Things change, people choose, paths are cleaved, what matters is just the urge to swim or row or just leap, across the flowing river.

To those that dare so, togetherness is built to last, maybe forever....

I understand exactly what u feel ...

ppl have said some very comforting things already to make u feel good ..so I shall not repeat.

Just one thing .... I understand exactly what u feel!!!!

Pathfinder: Another beautiful perspective to togetherness and separation. And I agree, its about wanting, a matter of reaching out, of jumping in the river to swim across, however turbulent it maybe, to fight against all odds, in terms of thoughts, feelings, physical/material hurdles to be together forever...
And ultimately it is only the depth of your feelings that keeps this togetherness intact despite separation. And yes this applies to any kind of relationship :)

Stories Untold: I know you do understand surabhi. btw spoke to Neha, i think she has gone crazy (just the way we used before our exams), she is literally laughing away her woes of not having prepared well :-P as also sleeping with books ;-) but all is fine or so I gathered...got an update about you too from her. What plans for the D day? Missing you!
